450874-1 U.S. 17/92 from North Ramona Avenue to east of South 3rd Street

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) began a resurfacing project on U.S. 17/92 from Lake Alfred to Haines City in mid-November 2025.

This project included:

• Milling and resurfacing the existing asphalt pavement

• Reconstructing curb ramps to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards

• Resurfacing most side street entrances, select driveway connections, and the U.S. 27 ramp connections to U.S. 17/92

Sidewalk and Pedestrian Impacts

During the construction of new sidewalk curb ramps in Haines City, some sections of sidewalk were temporarily closed. Pedestrian detours were clearly marked using lane closure delineators (LCDs) along the roadway.

Ramp Closures and Detours

To complete paving at the U.S. 27 ramp connections, one ramp at a time was closed between U.S. 17/92 and U.S. 27.

• Motorists on U.S. 17/92 wishing to access U.S. 27 were detoured to the next median opening, where they can make a U-turn and enter U.S. 27 from the opposite direction.

• Motorists on U.S. 27 wanting to access U.S. 17/92 used the opposite exit ramp and make a U-turn on U.S. 17/92 to continue in their desired direction.

  • Example: Drivers exiting U.S. 27 to travel east on U.S. 17/92 will be directed to the westbound exit ramp, then make a U-turn to head eastbound.

Work Hours and Lane Closures

Lane and ramp closures occurred nightly between 8 p.m. and 7 a.m.
